Adding a Server Blade to the System

Server Blades

IServer blades with a PCI I/O controller should be fitted in the middle of the basic unit (slots 5 and 6) to keep the cable bend radius as large as possible.

7.2Adding a Server Blade to the Basic Unit

Depending on the desired configuration, the system can be upgraded with up to 10 server blades.

VCAUTION!

Read the safety information and the information on handling electro- static-sensitive components in the section “Components With Elec- trostatic-Sensitive Devices” on page 25.

Beware of energy hazards on the plug-in contacts of the midplane. A short circuit on these connections can lead to damage to the system.

Removing the Dummy Module

All unoccupied slots in the basic unit are fitted with dummy modules to ensure that the electromagnetic emission properties of the system are observed and that the system components are properly cooled.

If you want to add a server blade, you must first remove the dummy module from the corresponding slot.
